Military Officials Remove Shocking Halloween Display From Fort Campbell Home

Controversial Halloween decorations have been removed from a home by military officials at Fort Campbell after residents claimed that it depicted a black family being lynched.

According to reports, Army officials at the Kentucky military base were made aware of the decorations when a photo was sent to them. The decorations depict a family hanging from tree branches.

Below one of the hanging figurines is a smaller child attempting to pull the hanging person down.
